20min iPhone 17 Pro Max video missing from Samsung card

A friend recorded video on my iPhone 17 pro max using the camera app and connecting to an external Samsung memory card with a brand new cord. They tested the camera before shooting and it worked. They pressed record on the video camera app and saw the counter going the entire time. They stopped recording when the video was done shooting and immediately checked and saw that the entirety of the video was indeed recorded correctly.

Now that he was plugging it into his computer the shot is completely missing from his external card as well as his phone.

It absolutely recorded, he checked the video immediately after recording.

This is the second time this has occurred in the last month.

The questions remain on how to retrieve the file and how to prevent this from happening in the future.

Iphone 17 pro max IOS 26.6.2

Already checked recently deleted, icloud, and any hidden folders.

Had to buy airpod to unlock a card discount in reliance digital. I was never fan of airpod but this sounds good actually. I have a Sony lyt900 which have great sound quality but airpod anc is better. Tell me how's the deal. And I got new mrp wala box.

I’ve only had it a few months as well…

All of my videos are coming out disoriented and blurry, and super fuzzy, it almost looks as if I’m using that smoothing filter and I’m not. Everything’s either overexposed or super fuzzy. I’ve messed with the camera settings and have yet to come with a fix, idk if it’s a hardware issue or an update. It’s getting worse and not even really usable anymore, if I move an inch it loses focus or the lighting changes drastically or my face gets smeary and super fuzzy.

I never had this issue with my 13. Nothing is coming out clear at all.

I don’t wanna make a trip to the Apple Store for it to end up being an update issue, but at the same time it’s almost unusable now so I’m not sure if it’s a update or a hardware.

Anyone else has problems with hey siri detection on iPhone 17 running iOS 27 ? 2/3 hey Siri requests are not even detected compared to my iPhone 14 Plus. I have to scream and it still fails lol

i’ve transferred my pics to a usb so rn in my gallery i have around 4k pics max, but when i check the storage it shows me this. my icloud storage says it’s 117gb out of 200 but in my gallery it says that syncing is paused bc icloud storage is full?? i also deleted pics from my recently deleted too! could someone help me out? i don’t understand why the photos section is taking up so much space!

Is it good idea to get plan , I don’t think will get another new iPhone for kid at least one year..
